Feeling Good
George A. Johnson Jr. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Rays driftin' on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me
And I'm feeling, so good, so
The fish in the sea
You know how I feel
Live and run free
You know how I feel
The lights are on the tree
You know how I feel
It's a new day, it's a new dawn
It's a new life for me
And I'm feeling good
Dragonfly out in the sun
You know what I need
But flies on having fun
You know what I need
Sleep in peace when the day is done
That's what I need
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world for me
Oh, you know just how I feel
It's a new day, it's a new dawn
It's a new life for me
And I'm feeling good
Say you know how I feel
Say you know how I feel
